Definitions
- a method for controlling an EGR circuit of a motor vehicle engine, valve for the implementation of the method and engine with the valve The invention relates to a method for controlling an exhaust gas recirculation circuit.
- an internal combustion engine of a motor vehicle a three-way valve for implementing the method and a motor comprising such a valve.
- a motor vehicle engine has a combustion chamber, generally formed by a plurality of cylinders, in which a mixture of oxidant and fuel is burned to generate the engine work.
- the oxidizer comprises air, which can be compressed or not, depending on whether the engine comprises a compressor or not; when compressed, it is called supercharging air.
- Air (often referred to as "fresh air”) may also be mixed with exhaust gases; it is called recirculated exhaust gas, this mode of operation being typically designated by the skilled person by the acronym EGR, which means "Exhaust Gas Recirculation” in English.
- the gases admitted into the combustion chamber are called intake gas; the intake gases can therefore be composed of fresh air alone, or of a mixture of fresh air and exhaust gas; the intake gas flow can be regulated by a throttle type valve controlled according to the depression of the accelerator pedal of the vehicle to regulate the engine speed.
- the air is admitted into the intake circuit of the engine, compressed by the compressor, cooled and admitted into the cylinders where it is burned with the fuel then evacuated through the exhaust pipes.
- exhaust gas recirculation can be called “low pressure”, when it is done on exhaust gases taken after the turbine and reintroduced before the compressor, or “high pressure”, when it is made with gases taken before the turbine and reintroduced after the compressor; both types of recirculation can be combined.
- low pressure recirculation allows, for a gasoline engine, to reduce the exhaust temperature (and therefore the fuel consumption since it is therefore not necessary to enrich the combustion mixture too much) and avoid rattling phenomena with a high compression ratio of the engine; for a diesel engine, it reduces pollution to comply with environmental standards.
- a so-called "three-way” valve is generally provided for controlling the EG rate, that is to say the recirculated exhaust in the total flow of intake gas entering the engine.
- Such a three-way valve comprises two inlet ducts, one for fresh air and the other for the recirculated exhaust gas (for sometimes speaking in the following, concerning the recirculated exhaust gases, "gas EGR "); EGR gases are usually cooled before being mixed with fresh air.
- the three-way valve further comprises an outlet duct communicating with the inlet ducts to receive fresh air and / or EGR gas; this outlet duct opens for example in the compressor from which the gases are guided in a cooler (or in a branch of this cooler) before admission to the engine.
- the three-way valve can be replaced by two simple valves arranged, one in the fresh air intake duct, the other in the exhaust gas recirculation duct.
- the flow of gas through a valve is regulated by a closure means such as a flap or a butterfly.
- the regulation of the EGR rate is made by the control of the valves.
- the valves can be controlled from a measurement of the flow rate of the gases passing through them or else from the pressure difference at their terminals.
- an air flow meter is mounted in the air intake circuit and the flow of gas admitted into the engine is also known; the difference between the intake gas flow rate and the fresh air flow rate corresponds to the flow of EGR gas and it is therefore easy to deduce the EGR rate.
- the aim of the invention is to propose a method for controlling an exhaust gas recirculation circuit that allows easy control of the EGR rate.
- the invention relates to a method for controlling an exhaust gas recirculation circuit of an internal combustion engine of a motor vehicle, the engine being connected to an air intake circuit and to a gas exhaust circuit connected to the air intake circuit by the recirculation circuit, a first valve regulating the air flow upstream of the recirculation circuit and a second valve regulating the flow of recirculated exhaust gas in the recirculation circuit, the recirculation of the exhaust gas being controlled in particular by measuring a pressure difference across the second valve, characterized in that it comprises the following steps:
- the invention is remarkable in that it proposes a particularly advantageous change in the control of an exhaust gas recirculation loop.
- the prior art traditionally proposed the gradual opening of the EGR valve and the closure of the air valve to create a vacuum and increase the flow of EGR; in such procedures, the pressure difference across the EGR valve was small.
- the method of the invention proposes a concomitant opening of the valves to create and maintain a sufficient pressure difference across the EG valve.
- the invention is particularly advantageous for controlling the recirculation of low pressure exhaust gas from a gasoline engine, for the reasons developed above.
- the first and second valves are arranged in a three-way valve having an inlet channel with the first valve, an inlet channel with the second valve and an outlet channel communicating directly or indirectly with a manifold. gas inlet into the engine.
- a three-way valve having an inlet channel with the first valve, an inlet channel with the second valve and an outlet channel communicating directly or indirectly with a manifold. gas inlet into the engine.
- the intake circuit comprising, downstream of the recirculation circuit, a third valve for regulating the flow rate of the gases admitted into the engine, acting on said valve to compensate for the closure of the first valve.
- This third valve can traditionally be a butterfly type valve to regulate the engine speed.
- the degree of opening of the first valve is substantially identical to the degree of opening of the second valve whatever their degree of opening.
- such an operation can be obtained by concomitant driving of the valves by a single motor, the degree of opening of the valves linearly depending on the angular position of the motor drive shaft, regardless of this position.
- the method comprises three phases or modes of operation for the concomitant opening of the valves:
- the invention also concerns, as intermediate product, a three-way valve for implementing the control method presented above, the valve being intended to provide the connection between the gas intake circuit and the exhaust gas recirculation circuit, the valve comprising a first airflow regulating flap, a second recirculated exhaust gas flow regulating flap and a single flap drive motor, valve characterized by the fact that it comprises a gear connecting the motor to the flaps for their drive, the gear comprising drive means of the first flap, drive means of the second flap and disengagement means of the second flap.
- the valve has three modes of operation:
- the concomitant opening or closing of the two shutters has three phases or modes:
- the invention also relates to an internal combustion engine combustion engine of a motor vehicle comprising a valve as presented above.
- FIGS. 2a, 2b and 2c show three modes of use of the EGR valve of FIG. 1;
- FIG. 3 is a graphical representation of the position of the flaps of the EGR valve as a function of the angular position of their drive motor according to a first embodiment of the valve of the invention
- FIG. 4 is a graphical representation of the passage section for the gases at the flaps of the EGR valve as a function of the angular position of their drive motor according to a second embodiment of the valve of the invention. ;
- FIG. 5 is a graph showing the permissible EGR rate as a function of the intake gas flow that is to say the engine speed;
- FIGS. 6a, 6b, 6c and 6d are perspective representations of the EGR valve of the first embodiment of the invention.
- an internal combustion engine M of a motor vehicle comprises a combustion chamber 1 comprising a plurality of cylinders, in this case four in number, and intended to receive a mixture of oxidant and fuel ( here gasoline) whose combustion in the cylinders generates the work of the engine M.
- oxidant and fuel here gasoline
- the operation of the engine M is traditional: the gases are admitted into the combustion chamber 1, are compressed, burned and then expelled in the form of gas. 'exhaust; these are the four classic times of a heat engine (intake, compression, combustion, exhaust).
- the gas intake circuit 2a in the engine M comprises a supply air intake pipe 3 or fresh air (whose flow is represented by the arrow Fl), a compressor 4 of the feed gases, which is in this case a turbocharger, and a heat exchanger 5 for cooling the gases from the compressor 4.
- This heat exchanger 5 is commonly designated by the skilled person by its acronym “RAS”, which means “cooler d 'supercharging air'; its function is indeed to cool the intake gas and in particular the air, which is said to be supercharged since it is compressed.
- RAS the gases open into a manifold 6 for the admission of gases into the combustion chamber 1 of the engine M, the manifold 6 forming a gas inlet box in the cylinder head of the engine M.
- the intake circuit 2a comprises a bypass 14 of the channel containing the RAS 5, the regulation of the gases between the cooled track and the uncooled track 14 being made by a valve 13, in a manner known per se.
- the intake circuit Upstream of the gas intake manifold 6 in the engine M, the intake circuit comprises a valve 17 comprising a butterfly valve whose function is to regulate the gas flow rate for the regulation of the engine speed; this butterfly valve 17 is controlled by a motor control unit (typically designated by the acronym ECU which stands for Engine Control Unit in English), well known to those skilled in the art.
- ECU Engine Control Unit
- the gas exhaust circuit 2b comprises, at the outlet of the combustion chamber 1 of the engine M, a manifold 7 of the exhaust gas connected to a channel or channel 8 for exhausting gases.
- the exhaust circuit 2b further comprises a turbine 10, integral in rotation with the compressor 4 of the intake gas and forming with it a turbocharger.
- the turbine 10 is driven by the exhaust gas of the exhaust path 8, whose flow is shown schematically by the arrow F2.
- the exhaust circuit 2b is connected to an exhaust gas recirculation circuit 2c comprising a recirculated exhaust gas guide pipe 11 ("EGR gas”) for withdrawing exhaust gases in the circuit 2b exhaust, near its outlet, and reintroduced in the intake circuit 2a, in this case upstream of the compressor 4, at a valve 9, which is in this case a three-way valve 9, which will be named later EGR valve 9 and which forms the place or zone of connection of the recirculation circuit 2c to the intake circuit 2a.
- EGR gas exhaust gas guide pipe 11
- a cooler 12 of these recirculated exhaust gas is also provided in the recirculation circuit 2c. The gases that are not recirculated form the exhaust gas of the vehicle, whose flow is designated by the arrow F3.
- the EGR valve 9 comprises a supply air inlet duct 9a (or duct 9a), a gas inlet duct 9b (or duct 9b) and a gas outlet duct 9c (or duct 9c). which form the inlet gases (and whose composition varies as a function of the flow of gases from the inlet channels 9a, 9b air and gas EGR).
- the EGR valve 9 comprises a flap 15 in its air inlet duct 9a (hereinafter referred to as "air flap 15”) and a flap 16 in its EGR gas inlet duct 9b (hereinafter referred to as "EGR gas shutter 16").
- the EGR valve 9 thus fulfills the function of two valves, one regulating the flow of fresh air and the other the flow of EGR gas.
- the flap of air 15 is open (totally or partially) and the EGR gas shutter 16 is closed, thus completely obstructing the recirculation pipe 1 1.
- the EGR gas shutter 16 being closed, the air shutter 15 can take, in this first operating mode, all degrees of opening between its maximum opening and closing.
- the two flaps 15, 16 are closed; such a mode of operation can typically be implemented in the idle speed of the engine.
- the air flap 15 is shaped so that its diameter is smaller than that of the pipe in which it extends to leave a clearance "J" between its edges and the inner surface of the wall of said pipeline.
- This clearance J allows the passage of a fresh air leakage current which guarantees a minimum air flow in the motor M to allow its operation in this operating mode of the EGR valve 9.
- the low flow rate of this current of leak is in this case compensated by the opening of the throttle valve 17 for adjusting the engine speed to ensure a minimum flow sufficient to the operation of the engine M.
- the difference between the pressure upstream of flap 16 and the pressure downstream of the flap 16) remains sufficiently large, regardless of the degree of opening of the two flaps 15, 16, to enable its measurement effectively using a pressure sensor that is not too precise; typically, the pressure difference thus remains between 15 millibars and 200 millibars; this pressure difference is measured using an upstream pressure sensor and a downstream pressure sensor, not shown.
- the EGR valve 9 comprises a single motor 18 for actuating its two flaps 15, 16; it is in this case a DC motor.
- the EGR valve 9 comprises a gear extending from the shaft 19 of the motor 18 to two shafts 20, 21 for rotating the air flap 15 and the EGR gas flap 16, respectively. These drive shafts 20, 21 are in this case parallel to each other and to the shaft 19 of the engine 18.
- the shaft 19 of the motor 18 is integral with a pinion 22 driving an intermediate gear wheel 23 carrying a peripheral toothing 24 and a central toothing 25 (these teeth 24, 25 are superimposed and concentric).
- the peripheral toothing 24 of the intermediate wheel 23 meshes with a ring gear 26 driving in rotation of the air shutter 15.
- the central toothing 25 of the intermediate wheel 23 meshes with a ring gear 27 of a drive mechanism 28 in the example under consideration, the motor 18, by its pinion 22, if it is rotated in the counterclockwise direction, drives the intermediate wheel 23 in rotation in the direction of rotation. clockwise.
- the intermediate wheel 23 drives by its teeth 24, the rings 26, 27 for rotating the two flaps 15, 16, in the opposite direction of clockwise.
- the air flap 15 is continuously rotated by the rotation of its drive toothing 26 without disengagement whatever its position. In the position of the toothing 26 of FIG. 6b, the air flap 15 is open in the first mode of operation of the EGR valve 9, that is to say with the closed EGR gas flap 16 (FIG. 2b). .
- the air flap 15 moves from its open position to its closed position (90 ° rotation), that is to say say in its position the second mode of operation of the EGR valve 9 ( Figure 2b); if the rotation of the motor 18 is continued, the rotation of the air flap 15 is continued which results in its opening but on the other side, up to an angle of 90 °, in the third operating mode of the EGR valve 9 ( Figure 2c).
- the mechanism 28 for driving the EGR gas flap 16 comprises a disengaging system arranged so that the rotation of the ring 27 does not cause the drive shaft 21 of the flap 16 to rotate over the first half of its travel ( 0-90 °) and rotates on the second half of its stroke (90 ° - 180 °).
- the mechanism 28 comprises a wheel 29 carrying the ring 27 and in which is formed a circular 30 disengaging light.
- the mechanism 28 further comprises a disc 31 integral in rotation with the drive shaft 21 of the flap 16 and carrying a finger 32 arranged to slide in the slot 31 between 0 ° and 90 ° and abut on the bottom 33 of the light between 90 ° and 180 ° for driving the disc 31 (and therefore the flap 16) by the wheel 29 carrying the crown 27.
- the kinematic law for driving the flaps 15, 16 by the motor 18 is represented by the graph of FIG. 3 which represents the opening angle ⁇ of the flaps 15, 16 (curve C1 for the air flap 15 and curve C2 for the gas shutter EG 16) as a function of the angle of rotation of the shaft 19 of the engine 18.
- a first zone I only the air flap 15 is rotated, from an open position to its full closed position (the clearance J allowing in this position the passage of a leakage air stream at its periphery); the flap 15 is driven from its closed position to an open position in the event of rotation in the opposite direction.
- the two flaps 15, 16 are rotated simultaneously from their closed position to their open position (or vice versa in the case of rotation in the opposite direction).
- the concomitant opening of the flaps 15, 16 is, in the embodiment described, in a linear manner as a function of the angle of rotation of the shaft 19 of the engine 18, the opening degrees of the flaps 15, 16 being substantially identical since the slopes of curves C1, C2 are close (but in this case not quite identical).
- the opening of the air shutter 15 there is also an offset in the opening of the air shutter 15, the latter being arranged to reach its maximum open position at a position angle ⁇ of the shaft 19 of the engine 18 less than the angle a2 corresponding to the maximum opening of the EGR gas flap 16, the air flap 15 continuing its rotation between these two angles a1 and a2 and passing therefore from its maximum open position to a partial closure position in the maximum open position of the EGR gas flap 16.
- the combination of the maximum opening of the EGR gas flap 16 with a partial closure of the flap air 15 makes it possible to increase the level of EGR since the partial closing of the air shutter 15 causes a suction effect of the EGR gases.
- the drive gear in rotation of the flaps 15, 16 may be arranged differently for a particular kinematic opening shutters 15, 16, as desired by those skilled in the art.
- FIG. 4 is a graph representing, on the ordinate, the section S of passage for the gases at flap level 15, 16 (curve C1 'for the air passage section at the air flap 15 and curve C2' for the passage section for the EGR gases 16 at the EGR gas flap 16) , as a function of the angle of rotation of the shaft 19 of the motor 18. Note that the curves are not straight portions as in FIG. 3 because the passage section is not linearly dependent on the angle a of the shaft 19 of the motor 18 (unlike the angle of rotation of the flaps 15, 16 which depends linearly, directly depending on the gear ratio).
- a third phase III in which the rotation of the motor 18 causes the opening or closing of the second flap 16, the first flap 15 being immobile and open to the maximum.
- the first two phases or zone I, II are used for the low or medium loads of the engine M, to ensure a suitable EGR rate with a pressure difference across the EGR gas flap 16 for its measurement effectively.
- the third phase or zone III is used for the high loads of the motor M, to guarantee a maximum air flow.
- Those skilled in the art will adapt the gear of the EGR valve 9 to obtain such kinematics; in particular, this opening kinematics flaps 15, 16, more complex to obtain than that of the first embodiment of the valve 9, can advantageously be obtained by means of two valves 15, 16 controlled electronically.
- a graph showing the EGR rate ⁇ (in%, representing the ratio of the EGR gas flow rate to the total gas flow rate D at the intake of the engine M) is presented for information purposes in FIG. of this same flow of gas D.
- the kinematics of the EGR valve 9 allows, for each engine speed M, to adjust the rate of EGR ⁇ on a point of this zone.
- the operation of the EGR valve 9 (whatever its embodiment) is also conventional, as well as that of the engine M and its intake circuits 2a, exhaust 2b and recirculation 2c.
- the assembly is regulated by the ECU thanks in particular to the measurement of the pressure difference across the EGR flap 16 made possible and facilitated by the control method and the valve 9 of the invention.
- the invention has been presented in connection with a valve provided with flaps but it could of course be provided with other closure means such as butterflies. Moreover, as already envisaged above, the three-way valve could be replaced by two simple valves.
